Synopsis

Quote: HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON is an adventure comedy set in the mythical world of burly Vikings and wild dragons. The story centers around a scrawny teenager, Hiccup, who lives on the island of Berk, where fighting dragons is a way of life. Initiation is coming, and this is his one chance to prove his worthiness to his tribe and father. But when Hiccup encounters, and ultimately befriends, an injured Night Fury dragon, his world is turned upside down and what started out as Hiccup’s one shot to prove himself turns into an opportunity to set a new course for the future of the entire tribe.

You should buy your girlfriend the DVD and make her watch it repeatedly, aside from co-riding toothless that is the ONLY dragon Astrid flies.

That's funny, my playstation 3 just downloaded 3D blu-ray support and plays and runs them just fine, in 3D and all.

I noticed from Amazon that the Bluray is also a Blu-Ray and Double Dragon Pack. But compared to all Dreamworks animated movies, cute but not my favorite of all computer animated films. Still hope the DVD comes with the Bluray.

Perfect acting, perfect story, perfect special effects, perfect running time, perfect cinematography. It was truly amazing and definitely needs a few more viewings. I can see if you say that Toy Story 3 is better (*maybe*) but HTTYD better than Inception?!?!?! I was actually really disappointed with Inception. The emotional impact was not there. It felt like watching Shutter Island all over again. You can see the similarities. Also, we never get to know any of the characters at all, except for Leo, of course. I just think that if a no-named director directed the film, it wouldn't have gotten this much attention and love. There are also a lot of plot contrivances in the third act.

I'm surprised by the lukewarm responses for the film so far because I think it's easily the second best film of the year so far, behind, of course, "Toy Story 3." Yes, it's even better than the overrated "Inception." There. I said it. This is an achievement in animated filmmaking for Dreamworks. It was really breathtaking to see the film in 3D but I'm sure it's just as good seeing it in 2D. Again, wow, guys. This is a brilliant film. Don't let the above responses say otherwise.

I did see it in 2-D but that shouldnt make THAT much of a difference. I sense c**ppy extras on these releases b/c i know exactly what they are doing. They are piling it on for the 3-D bluray release, those sneaky b*****ds. Yall can quote me on that. Again i dont care b/c ill take toy story 3 over this any day

You know it's strange because I really enjoyed this movie, yet I'd never watch it again. I could *kind* of see where you're coming from. The beginning was really slow and this film was pretty predictable, although despite its flaws, I really enjoyed it. But yeah, I could see your point of view. Toy Story 3 was definitely ten times better than this movie.

It wasn't as good as "Kung Fu Panda," but it was way better than "Alice in Wonderland." But I do agree though "Toy Story 3" was 100 times better than this.

Yeah, HTTYD was better than Alice in Wonderland. Although, I actually *sort of* liked Wonderland. Very visually enchanting and entertaining. Although, it did lack substance.

I thought "Alice in Wonderland" was arguably the most disappointing movie of the year. But nothing is worse than "Marmaduke" this year. I wanted to like "Alice in Wonderland," but I didn't.

Glad u agree. One thing with me is i never go with the flow. I give my honest opinion ALL the time. I don't let hype or critics determine my thoughts. I WANTED to like it but it did nothing for me. I loved movies like up, coraline, rataoutlie(sp?) and even dispicable me. Oh well, cant love em all.

If anyone agrees with me, please quote this because I feel alone in my statement. I really enjoyed this film, but I'd never watch it again. Crazy isn't it? Don't get me wrong, this was a well-crafted movie, but I just don't feel like watching it again.

I thought this was pretty good. Not one of Dreamworks best animated movies, but a great animated movie, nonetheless. I'll probably buy it and I will probably try to get my mom to watch it since she was thinking about seeing it.

Wanted so bad to take my boyfriend to this, but we never got around to it. I'll probably blind buy it on day one because of all the praise I've read and heard about it. I get asked at work at least once a week if we have this movie and I keep telling parents it should be out by September. Now I know: October 15.
